Come for a supersized version of the classic show-and-tell that kids love so much! We’re inviting Andy Plymate from Bridge City Blades to demonstrate his incredible swordsmanship! Bridge City Blades looks to centuries-old manuals teaching fencing skills for the battlefield and Sala alike. They embrace rich traditions, the living history, and get a little sweaty in the process! After the demonstration, kids will be able to ask questions and see the gear that Andy brought along! We will also have a craft station where kids can make their own sword and shield!
